Greek Glossary
I have used the search function but was unsuccessful. Is there somewhere that lists terminology? There are some things I have been able to pick up using the context of a sentence or paragraph (PNM). There are other terms that are confusing for those of us who have NO Greek background at all.
Can someone help?

There's a thread called GC Dictionary.
Just search thread titles for Dictionary.

You might also want to check out The Greek Info Pages -- a site created by GC's very own Jen.
Her site also lists the basic facts of each of the 26 NPC sororities.

I am so glad they said this. I get sick of people telling me I'm wrong for saying "Frat" lol

Thanks so much. This is especially helpful as I am reading all of the recruitment stories and sometimes get confused with the terminology.
